Powder Coat Finish

Powder coating has long been the industry standard for durability in protective metal finishes. A dry powder (non-aerosol) is electrostati- cally applied to the metal and “baked” on to provide a hard “shell- like” finish. As an additional benefit, powder coating is the only finishing process that releases no toxic chemicals into our ozone.

THE RESULT: A durable and “earth friendly” metal finish.

Crossover Features

Optical Compression Circuit

The speaker's linear compliance is balanced through the use of a “proprietary” flat spider design. A flat spider provides symmetrical control of the voice coil through its cone excursion. Linear cone excursion reduces harmonic distortion for improved sound quality.

THE RESULT: Reduces mechanical distortion for better sound quality

.

Series Notch Filter

The Series Notch Filter compensates for the inductive load presented by the driver (speaker). The filter's primary function is to dampen and eliminate the effect that driver resonance has on the crossover. The Series Notch Filter flattens out the inductive load which greatly improves driver performance by providing a “stable” crossover point.

THE RESULT: Improves driver performance by reducing resonant peak.
